Re: Legend

Hmm, I really hope I do not have to re-encode and upload these. I used the default encoder in Winavi coverter. They play fine on my laptop and I belive all I have installed is CCCP http://www.cccp-project.net/

Re: Legend

Only thing I can think of is that encoder pack I linked above. I have been planning on re-uploading then with a different encoder but things have been a bit crazy with work the last couple of weeks. I will try and start that today.

Check out the Legend gallery the 2012 looks great how it actually performs we'll have to see with Legend I always like to see factory vids to get an idea of the product but I back that up with personal vids to make sure unlike Forward brand with Forward what you see is what you get

Re: Legend

I didnt see a cake called 2012. Did you mean just the 2012 cakes in general?
Is there also some sort of trick to get the videos to play?

Now I can hear, but only get to see some groovy lava lamp looking visual on the screen. Funny how I can watch anything on youtube, vimeo, quicktime, pyro review, websites...etc., but the minute I try to watch something from the PU gallery it takes 5 min. to download and then I can't even watch it

Have you installed an xVid codec of some kind. I had a link to a pretty good one up above. If you are having problems with other videos I am guessing that would solve it for you. All of the videos on the sites you listed are using either a flash player or quicktime with has its own standard. I am guessing you could play WMV files as well.

Yea...I tried that. I guess my point is, what's the point of using the stupid gallery if not everyone is guaranteed to be able to watch? I have no idea what these "codec" are, and for that matter, if they are so important, why aren't they programmed on the computer when you buy it. I can play all the other videos right out of the box?????? Admittedly, Computers aren't my thing. But if it's so much easier to watch a Youtube video and not have to wait for a download or need some special "codec" that the (below) average computer has never heard of, why not just use Youtube? I cringe every time I try to use that Gallery for video....what a pain in the ass!!!!!
